Only one driver can claim a physical device (multi-function devices have to be treated a busses with several children). There are a number of drivers in FreeBSD that have overlapping capabilities - in which case the safest approach is to only load the ones you don't want. uart(4) is a more recent serial driver and I believe it will supplant sio(4) in time but I believe there are still some kludges that require sio. I'm glad you resolved your problems. --=20 Peter Jeremy --xQmOcGOVkeO43v2v Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFF1/Ge/opHv/APuIcRAvEQAJ9ZGlJzaGDq/9+lVIyR+IpFSw3lFQCbBScX QyqSobpkEBNYaT+S0sZcAyw= =RJ7D -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --xQmOcGOVkeO43v2v--
